Somnium

I feel drowsy

I wish to sleep

But I hope not

For nightmares

I know I'll keep

.

I feel so tired

I wish to sleep

But I hope not

For insomnia

Thus persists

.

I feel burdened

I wish to sleep

But I hope not

Anxieties, they

Fell and tipped

.

I feel loathing

I wish to sleep

But I hope not

I'm riddled with

A burying guilt

.

I feel change

I wish to sleep

But I hope not

I am gone too

Far in and deep

.

I feel like dying now

I wish to sleep then

But I sure hope not

For tomorrow I know

I will only wake again.
